The Dish In South Dakota

I live in South Dakota, and I'm one of your biggest fans. I've been here since the beginning. I was a financial supporter of the original blog, and I bought some of the books for the old book club. I own all of your books. I subscribe to the Atlantic. I read your posts religiously, and I send you email responses, some of which you have replied to. You've even used my responses as the basis of a post or two.

I'm sorry. Samples of 2,000 don't capture the full picture. And I'm really grateful for the support.
